Adopt Kimmie

Lurcher · Female · Young · 2 years

Kimmie is a quiet, gentle 2 year old lurcher, now ready to find her forever home. When she first arrived to us, she was quite nervous, but she has gradually learned to trust our volunteers and is growing in confidence every day. While she may be shy around new people, she warms up with patience and kindness. She is a timid, sweet-natured girl, who gets along very well with the dogs she has met at the shelter and would likely benefit from the company of a calm, friendly canine companion in her new home, however, that is not a condition of her adoption. Kimmie walks very nicely on the lead, keeping a gentle, relaxed pace. She particularly enjoys her walks around the fields, where she takes great interest in stopping to sniff and explore all the different scents along the way. Because of her sensitive nature, we feel Kimmie would be best suited to a quieter home where she can continue to build her confidence at her own pace. An adult home or a household with older teenage children would be ideal, as they are more likely to understand her need for patience and gentle handling. With the right home, Kimmie has so much love to give and will make a loyal and devoted companion.
